Villa Webber, 19th century villa in La Maddalena, Italy.

The stone villa stands on a hilltop with a square turret, surrounded by three layers of walls and Mediterranean vegetation.

During World War II, Italian leader Benito Mussolini spent twenty days imprisoned in Villa Webber from August 7 to August 27, 1943.

British merchant James Phillips Webber filled the villa with author paintings, antique furniture, and an extensive collection of books he personally maintained.

The villa remains closed to visitors as it sits on private property owned by the municipality of La Maddalena.

The original owner implemented an advanced water collection system and created spaces for exotic birds and animals within the property grounds.
